    Got two of the chicken wraps. The salad dressing and salad were very fresh.

    Fresh food, very tasty! Great smoothies (balanced flavor, creamy and delish). Place itself was a nice hang out spot with colorful art. Service was very nice.

    Found this place on maps traveling down to Virginia. It was a quick hop off the highway to get here in downtown Charleston. The inside of the restaraunt is beautiful. I got the Thai Noodle bowl and it was so good. Quick service. It's the perfect quick stop if you're traveling and looking for something other than a fast food option!

    A welcoming outside!

    Chef Jesse Lyons is one of the most creative chef''s in West Virginia and Chasity makes the BEST crab cakes around! I came here for the special Valentine's Day Brunch, featuring a Crab Cake Benedict with sides and a dandy Bloody Mary. My server was Michelle who was kind, cheerful and efficient! This is a lovely place normally open for breakfast and lunch Monday thru Friday! GREAT soups, salads and sandwiches! Go!!!!

    I didn't know what I wanted for lunch when I landed in Charleston. So when the app suggested Coco's Kitchen I decided to give it a try. Coco's kitchen has a clean, open, updated space, with walls covered with bright paintings. The restaurant has coffee house style seating, with a mixture of tables and chairs closest to the open kitchen, and couches and casual seating nearest to the door. I appreciated the open concept of the establishment, making it easy for me to go to the counter, quickly scanned the menu on the wall and select a Vietnamese bowl with grilled chicken as a protein. The dish arrived rather quickly, and was presented beautifully. The bowl was wonderful a blend of contrasts. Featuring hot savory, grilled chicken and chilled vegetables including cucumbers, shredded carrots, lettuce, and a sweetened slaw. The dish also had what appeared to be soft Vermicelli noodles topped with fresh herbs, and a spicy crunchy noodle garnish with a tangy Vietnamese-style dressing. While I don't know if it was an authentic Vietnamese dish, I really liked it and would recommend the dish and Coco's Kitchen to anyone looking for a bite in downtown Charleston.

    Aloha Bowl with pineapple.

    Healthiest and best tasting food in Charleston! Our go to place for lunch every week. Michelle, Carrie and chef Brandon are wonderful and always take good care of us. Don't miss this place when you are in town.

    My boyfriend and I were passing through Charleston, WV during our roadtrip and looking for dinner…read moreduring the work week. I wanted to try something new and interesting and through my Yelp research I found this spot. It's located in downtown with metered street parking free Monday-Saturday nights after 6pm and all of Sunday. Luckily, we were able to find a spot easily. Inside was modern and relatively clean. We had to wait a little bit to be seated as they were pretty busy; however, this place had a decent amount of seating and space. Service was good overall, but it wasn't as consistent as I would've liked for actions such as water refills, asking for extra napkins, etc. This was partly because they were very busy that night. They have a variety of food options - apps, salads, sandwiches, pies (pizzas), and dessert. We ended up ordering a large pizza (thin crust) to split - half Thai and half Chicken Gouda. Both were yummy although the crust was a tad burnt - nothing bad to the extent that taking bites were an effort. Overall, I preferred the Thai since I've never come across a Thai style pizza and I could really taste the curry sauce. The only downside of the Thai was that the shrimp were slightly overcooked, which could be potentially explained by us ordering a pizza split in two styles with them cooking the entire pizza evenly versus what is needed for each ingredient. We finished the entire pizza between the two of us, but I could see someone having some leftovers. If possible, they might want to do some minor pest management. The entire time of our visit a fruit fly or gnat was hovering around us and the food. We tried to catch it and protect the food, only for it to ultimately take a permanent dip in my water. My overall assessment was that it was a good place to try in the city. It's not something I would crave, but I wouldn't mind coming back again if I was in the area.

The bar staff was outstanding from start to finish. We had a few different bartenders taking care of us, and each one was attentive, friendly, and great at helping with recommendations.

Everything we had was packed with flavor. The drinks didn't miss either--ice-cold beer and expertly crafted cocktails all around. If you find yourself in Charleston, this spot is absolutely worth a visit. Highly recommend.

Loved the loaded asparagus, but I wish it had been a more generous portion. Chicken and cauliflower was well seasoned. The chicken was tender and the grilled chicken sandwich was also a hit. The roasted red potatoes with kale pesto got great reviews from our dinner mates. Our server Ann was the tops! She was funny, personable and engaging. She read us well and made dinner most memorable! The picture is really a "secret"... you take your life into your hands going down into the "speak-cheesy!" The handrail was pretty rickety and the flooring really should be replaced.... It wouldn't affect the vibe at all... Loved my amaretto sour(s)!

A major plus to this Seasonal Depression Sufferer! We went to the bar to place our order! We opted for the Knotty Boy Garlic Knots for $10 & the Fully Loaded Detroit Style Pizza for $15I had a bottle of water and though he was very disappointed that it was ONLY their WV Craft Beer served, he went with what the bartender recommended (closest to a PBR & Budweiser that they offered ) for $5.50, total with taxes & Tip was $42. We were surprised that the food was out in like 15 minutes. We fully expected to wait since Detroit Deep Dish normally takes 30 minutes to 45 minutes to cook fully. This led us to believe it was PAR BAKED for faster Customer Service which to many is NOT A PLUS! The Garlic Knots were very doughy and extremely dense in texture. Not a fan! The service was fast and friendly but for the atmosphere, price and the fact they are trying to be trendy, the paper plates & plastic cutlery was a BIG NEGATIVE!! I know myself even if Melanac Hard Plastic for plates is okay, but I want true Silverware!! The sauce has a really Great flavor and the cheese pull was very nice on the pizza. The sauce served on top, a big big plus!! I live in Ripley, WV and drove 35 minutes one way to enjoy this meal, but the question is...would I do it again?? Probably NOT! I give them a 5 out of 5 on atmosphere and ambience they nailed that! I give them a 4 out 5 on Customer Service because the food came too fast!! I give them a 3 out 5 for the food, the sauce was perfect but everything else about taste and flavor was a hit and miss. The score might have been higher if I had left off the Knotty Boy Garlic Knots!! The beer though I tasted it wasnt bad but Im not a beer drinker, my hubby was very disappointed so thats 2 out of 5 stars and the tableware scores a zero!! I wasn't on a picnic and the paper and plastic screams picnic or lazy kitchen staff to me!! So, would I recommend? I must say overall, 3 stars out of 5 stars! I recommend you go and decide for yourself!

Located in side historic old train depot, so the building itself is very nice and sort of uplifting. The lighting here is fab, so open and airy. I really enjoy the vibe I got here. The staff was very friendly! Also extremely helpful in answering a few questions. The salads are large for $8.99 and you have your choice of various salads and dressings. They are big and I wanted one but not enough room in the stomach for something this big so I opted for a small container of Egg Salad with 2 slices of Wheat bread cut in half in the container neatly packaged and sealed for $4.99 with todays day. The employee said everything made daily and fresh.. I also purchased some fresh produce some Cotton Candy Grapes about 1lb of those delicious little green globes. Total was $10.49 with taxes. The reason I am giving it a lower mark in the star scale is that within 2 hrs of eating the fresh Egg Salad I was so sick and I had to cancel my afternoon apt and visit the doctor. Needless to say, I will not order that again!! But I will definitely go back for some fresh fruit and veggies. I liked the location and I am not going to let one bad Egg Salad Sandwich stop me!! Unless it happens again!!!

They have gluten free options and anything can be made gluten free according to the staff. They also have some vegetarian options. I love burgers, and honestly, it's hard to beat a handmade beyond smashburger. This restaurant currently does not offer another veggie substitute other than the Portobello mushroom. It was good, with the added goat cheese, but would have rather had a burger substitute with mushrooms added on top. The fries are great! Perfectly fried with golden crunch in every bite. The garlic aioli is the perfect dipping sauce. I ordered a ranch side as well and it's good, but the aioli is the best choice in my opinion. Great local restaurant with a burger for everyone.

Parking is along one side of the street and there are not many spaces available. We were able to find a spot on the opposite corner. Walking is pretty easy along the street or on the sidewalk. I did not notice any handicapped spaces, and there are two steps up to the door so be aware. Walking in the door of the small interior, the ordering counter is to the left with a small table seating area on the right. The menu was on the counter. The staff were very friendly and let us know the specials. We placed our order and then went outside to the small outdoor seating area on the side of the building. Our food was brought out to us in a little over five minutes. We had ordered the gyro sandwich and the taste of Crete sampler. The gyro sandwich had a good amount of meat along with fresh veggies. The pita was soft and held the ingredients together well. The overall taste was a mix of flavorful meat and fresh ingredients, an excellent representation of what a gyro should be. The Taste of Crete sampler provided a quick culinary tour of Crete, with gyro meat, a salad, hummus, and a cucumber salad. It even comes with a piece of baklava for dessert. Again, the gyro meat was very good, the pita fresh and soft, and the salad fresh and crisp. The cucumber salad was refreshing on a reasonably warm day. The hummus was amazingly good. It was extremely garlicky and bold. My dining partner and I had to negotiate who would get the last bite. The owner and all the staff were friendly and eager to show off their offerings.
